Chapter 1844 Levik’s war to destroy the country (4)
1845, Levik’s War of Destruction (4)
The two fleets sent out sent a message back the next day, saying that they had discovered suspected enemy ships. But then, they were like mud cows entering the sea, with no response at all. This result made the Xilu Empire even more
of panic.
During the past few days, the great Siritut asked for news about the two fleets almost every hour, but the news he received every time was - no news.
Now, 10 days have passed since the Ninth Fleet was lost and destroyed. During this period, all the troops of the Xilu Empire were almost in a state of mental collapse.
They went from being nervous at the beginning, to high morale, to shouting and fighting, then gradually fell silent while waiting endlessly, then became uneasy, and now, they are full of fear.
They no longer knew how long they had to wait, nor what they were about to face. They only knew that they had encountered an invasion, and it was an extremely terrifying invasion.
Rumors of the God of Decay began to spread gradually from the top of the Xilu Empire. More and more people began to know about the existence of the God of Decay. More and more people learned that it was the God of Decay who had wiped out Xilu one after another.
Three fleets of the empire! And not even one of these three fleets came back to report!
The panic of doomsday began to spread in the Xilu Empire, and became more and more intense. Almost everyone began to pray to the Heavenly Saint at home, hoping that the power of the gods could help them resist the attack of the corrupt god.
However, all to no avail.
Nothing happened, but a lot of things seemed to happen...
Such emotions were even more serious among the troops of the Xilu Empire. The long period of vigilance made them physically and mentally exhausted. Later, even a comet caused the fleet to be dispatched urgently.
Things can't continue like this.
The ruler of the Xilu Empire, the great Siritut, convened many meetings with the highest levels of the empire to discuss whether to lift the alert and relax the tight strings of the entire empire.
However, no matter how they discussed, there was no way to get around this fact - three fleets disappeared before and after, so we can't just pretend that nothing happened, right?
There must be an explanation for who destroyed these three fleets, right?
And even from the perspective of the empire's top brass, how can we lift the alert without even understanding where the threat comes from?
Amid the endless quarrels, another day passed.
Finally, the great Siritut issued an order and agreed to let the army rest in batches and no longer be on first-level alert. It was only necessary to keep at least two-thirds of the soldiers on duty at all times.
However, while they were discussing, a red-skinned Xilu officer rushed in angrily, lowered his head like a wild bull and ran directly into the emperor's meeting hall, shouting: "Unidentified hyperspace detected.
Volatility!! We have been invaded!!"
"What? It's finally here!!" The great Siritut jumped up from the throne almost immediately and shouted, "I have been waiting for them for a long time!"
"Holy Heaven! The invader has finally appeared!" The golden bishop also knelt down and worshiped the sky.
At this time, only General Lepuix was relatively calm. He asked: "What is the level of hyperspace fluctuation? Can you judge the size of the opponent?"
"Although the fluctuations caused a lot of interference, our supercomputer still came to the conclusion based on the very fuzzy data - the opponent's scale is very large! At least a fleet can cause fluctuations!" the officer said.
"If this is the case, then attack immediately! No matter who the opponent is, I will blow them to pieces!!" Lepix shouted angrily, turned around and walked out.
"Wait a minute, General!" the officer quickly stopped him, "General...but the fluctuation we detected is on Planet No. 5!"
Only then did Lepix stop, turned around and asked: "Planet 5? What's going on?"
Planet No. 5 is equivalent to the edge of the Siscat Galaxy.
The Siscat galaxy is a galaxy with six planets, and Levik's planet is located in the second planet close to the star in the galaxy. The average distance from Planet 5 is a full 550 million kilometers! This is equivalent to almost 30 light minutes.
!
"If it was an intruder, why did it come so far?" Lepicus finally stopped, extremely confused.
But no one present could give him an answer.
So General Lepuix shouted loudly: "No matter so much! Get all fleets ready for battle! The enemy is already here!"
"General, our fleet has been preparing for battle for the past twelve days." the officer complained.
Dare to complain like this in front of General Lepuix not only because this officer also belongs to the red people's caste, but also because the soldiers have complained about this continuous vigilance.
Seeing General Lepic rushing out, the great Siritut and others in the conference room looked at each other, then swarmed away, all running towards the command center.
They also want to know the height of this being who quietly destroyed three of their fleets.
But when dozens of them rushed into the command center, they saw General Lepic standing in a daze in front of the holographic star map.
"Where is the enemy?"
"Where are the intruders?" everyone was asking.
But General Lepuix just said slowly: "The hyperspace fluctuations just erupted and have now disappeared. This means that the opponent has left the hyperspace and is now in our Siscat galaxy. But the opponent is 30 light minutes away.
Besides, it takes an hour for our scanning signals to go back and forth to get results."
"One hour!" The great Siritut almost lost his composure. He roared loudly, "Do we have to wait another hour to see who they are since the enemies are here? Wait, wait! Why do we have to wait!!
"
General Lepuix arched his neck and said: "This enemy is really weird. No matter what their purpose is, choosing the landing point of the hyperspace jump near Planet 5 is a meaningless choice. I really don't think so.
Know why."
He thought for a while and said: "Let all fleets gather in the direction of Planet 5, and prepare close-in defense guns and orbital defense weapons! The other party may also want to use mass accelerators to attack at super long distances!!"
This is also one of the possibilities. Because in the cosmic environment, the theoretical range of live ammunition weapons is infinite. Therefore, if the opponent continuously uses mass accelerators to launch shells from ultra-long distances, it is indeed possible.
Of course, at such a distance, one's own defense fleet and orbital defense system have enough time to detect and lock the opponent's incoming artillery shells, and then intercept them easily.
But as soon as his instructions came out, a light suddenly flashed!
Then there was a faint sound of thunder from the sky! Soon, the communication came, and someone shouted: "General! Our planet is being bombed! Someone is attacking us!!"
"Who is the opponent? How did they attack?!" General Lepic said loudly.
"Light...we only saw three beams of light falling from the sky! And then...then Sirokas Mountain disappeared!" The voice over there was filled with fear.
"This...what are they using to attack us?" The great Siritut was completely confused.
However, another ten minutes later, the communication that the planet was under attack came again!
